Last year, Salman had taken to social media to share a nostalgic moment with a photo featuring a vintage Triumph Tiger 100 (1956) alongside his father. The caption read: “Dad's 1st bike, Triumph Tiger 100, 1956!” The superstar fondly remembered, “He bought this bike when he was 16 years old for 4800.” Though the bike had long since left their lives, it remained a topic of frequent conversation between Salim Khan and his son Sohail Khan. Eventually, Sohail tracked down the bike in a junkyard in Hyderabad.

“We got this bike from Hyderabad, sourced all the parts that were missing, and restored it for him,” Salman shared, visibly moved by the gesture and the memories it brought back.
